TD Ameritrade - All Night Long Trading

Television / Online Video

We launched 24/5 trading, a breakthrough product which allows traders to keep trading after the market closes. In fact, they can now trade all night long. So we enlisted the most qualified nocturnal authority to deliver the big news.

The first spot features Mr. Richie creating magic on the piano. The second spot ran during Super Bowl LII, and features Lionel with the TDA Green Room guy and the real CTO of TD Ameritrade.

Volkswagen 'Soccer Fatigue Sensor'

Branded Entertainment

To promote VW's Fatigue Sensor, we used Brazil's most popular sport: soccer. Whenever a player was worn-out and ready to rest, the fatigue sensor icon would appear over the player, indicating that he was too tired to continue playing. In addition, as the icon followed a player across the field, the live TV game commentator would call out that the player was tired and ready to be benched. This stunt aired in Brazil during the British FA Cup and Italian Serie A League games.

Antarctica 'Not even me?'

Television / Digital

In Brazil, it's illegal to show people drinking beer in television commercials. We used the law in our favor to create a fun, unique brand relaunch campaign for Antartica beer that left consumers thirsty for more.

YouTube Skip Ad

The main character from our campaign urged viewers to skip the pre-roll ad as fast as possible, because he couldn't drink a beer until someone skipped it and he was out of sight.

Terminix 'Defenders of Home'

Television

Terminix is all about relentlessly protecting homes and preventing pests from getting in. We created an action hero to support that position. Like James Bond chases arms dealers, our guy chases termites and roaches. These two spots just launched the new brand.

TD Ameritrade Skip Advice

Pre-roll Campaign

Traders get bad trading advice from everyone, everywhere. Especially from shady home vloggers on the Internet. So we created pre-roll ads where you see sketchy home traders giving viewers bad advice. A ‘skip advice’ button appears in lieu of the ‘skip ad’ button. Once a viewer clicks the button, our TD Ameritrade guy appears and sets viewers straight.

Casa do Zezinho 'Goal for Education'

PR Stunt / Outdoor

Casa do Zezinho is a NGO located in Capão redondo, one of São Paulo's poorest neighborhoods. It helps more than 5.000 children have access to education. A year before the Soccer World Cup we developed this project with São Paulo's biggest soccer team and used their jerseys to get people's attention to education. Player numbers on the back of the jerseys were switched for mathematic equations that equaled their original numbers. The players used them during one of the biggest football derby's in Brazil: São Paulo x Corinthians. At the end of the game all jerseys where auctioned on the Internet and all the money donated to Casa do Zezinho.

Visa 'World Cup'

Outdoor / Print

At the FIFA World Cup in Brazil, over 1 million visitors from 202 countries came to experience the games. But the problem was, they weren't necessarily feeling welcome by the locals who spent weeks prior to the games protesting the event's funding. So as one of the World Cup's biggest sponsors, Visa used it's brand positioning to let visitors know that 'everyone is welcome.'

Snicker 'The Hungry Booth'

Outdoor Activation

Snickers was launching its brand in Brazil for the first time, primarily targeting hungry college students. So as part of the launch, we developed a photo booth that adopted the legendary concept of 'you're not you when you're hungry.' The machine was put on the campus of one of São Paulo's biggest universities. When students took their photos, pics of the iconic Brazilian comedic actress Betty Faria came out. (Faria is the equivalent of America's Betty White.)
